In my Opinion Happily Ever After = Wondrous Journeys. WJ is DLR's HEA
Both really good instances where the Disney movies are in conversation with each other, which is why both work so well IMO. Uses the new to recall and recontextualize what came before. Much stronger than the average clip show (even something like Disneyland Forever, which is an above-average clip show but is very compartmentalized in what it presents).

I’m not sure - it gets so much love and I just don’t have the feels when I watch it. I liked Epcot forever better haha. I also liked Enchantment much better.

Now if WDW could get Wondrous Journeys - 😍
I think it's time for you to delete you're account, that's just not allowed on these forums LOL.

Between that, the continued existence of MMM, and the night parade shuffle, it leads me to believe that the people with decision-making powers within Entertainment have some pretty odd tastes.
You mean Night Parade Lockup!

Plus, MK isn't even back to Feb 2020 Levels for Entertainment........

Really makes me wonder who's controlling Park Entertainment.................

I don't get the HEA feels from WJ. However with A & B Modes together, WJ is just as good Pyro Tech wise as HEA!

I don’t get WJ feels from HEA no matter what! Haha.

Actually with one exception - the finale with “you can fly” and tink flying - that’s the only time. For me of course!

Not really related to this topic, but Together Forever gets early showing (soft preview) yesterday. We seen that there's much replacement of many scenes, particularly the inclusion of Elemental, Turning Red, Onward, Luca, and Soul. Additionally, the finale song gets reorchestrated, the runtime becomes 13 minutes instead of 12 minutes, and exit musics and castle projection kept.
2024 version


Here's 2018 version


UPDATE: The show also had the soft-opening in 20 April and possibly 21 April if it including fireworks. Here's for small world area, where the spotlights used for Wondrous Journeys had been utilized for this revamped version.

Also kind of off topic but has anyone else noticed that Epcot and Disneyland use a lot of the same pyro? I noticed the into the unknown crackle shells and the Luminous Coco shells in this, although they weren't used during the coco scene. Also just the way the pyro and lighting was done seemed very similar to Luminous makes me wonder if this redo was done by some of the Luminous team.

Still no flames, wonder if they will ever return.

If Fantasmic! doesn't return with flames/fire in the river (with whatever new Mallificient sequence they're doing), that will be really disappointing.
The only thing I can think of is they must've found some underlying safety issue with the system in use by the castle because flamethrowers have returned to every other Disney park that used them except DL.
